SYNOPSIS
use Getopt::Long::Negate::EN qw(negations_for_option);
# the Getopt::Long's default

@negs = negations_for_option('with-foo'); # ('without-foo')
@negs = negations_for_option('without-foo'); # ('with-foo')
@negs = negations_for_option('is-foo'); # ('isnt-foo')
@negs = negations_for_option('isnt-foo'); # ('is-foo')
@negs = negations_for_option('are-foo'); # ('isnt-foo')
@negs = negations_for_option('arent-foo'); # ('arent-foo')
@negs = negations_for_option('has-foo'); # ('hasnt-foo')
@negs = negations_for_option('hasnt-foo'); # ('has-foo')
@negs = negations_for_option('have-foo'); # ('havent-foo')
@negs = negations_for_option('havent-foo'); # ('have-foo')
@negs = negations_for_option('can-foo'); # ('cant-foo')
@negs = negations_for_option('cant-foo'); # ('can-foo')
@negs = negations_for_option('enabled-foo'); # ('disabled-foo')
@negs = negations_for_option('disabled-foo');# ('enabled-foo')
@negs = negations_for_option('enable-foo'); # ('disable-foo')
@negs = negations_for_option('disable-foo'); # ('enable-foo')
@negs = negations_for_option('allowed-foo'); # ('disallowed-foo')
@negs = negations_for_option('disallowed-foo'); # ('allowed-foo')
@negs = negations_for_option('allow-foo'); # ('disallow-foo')
@negs = negations_for_option('disallow-foo'); # ('allow-foo')
@negs = negations_for_option('include-foo'); # ('exclude-foo')

@negs = negations_for_option('no-foo'); # ('foo')
DESCRIPTION
This module aims to provide a nicer negative boolean option names. By
default, Getopt::Long provides options "--foo" as well as "--no-foo" and
"--nofoo" if you specify boolean option specification "foo!". But this
produces awkward/incorrect English word like "--nowith-foo" or
"--no-is-foo". In those two cases, "--without-foo" and "--isnt-foo" are
better option names.
FUNCTIONS
None are exported by default, but they are exportable.
